Yeah it'd definitely make the forum look like it favours only a few ways of writing then too. There are Asian, European and African dialects of English that are easy to understand but grammarly probably hates (because it's not designed for them).


Grammarly does more than English but there's probably going to be a local board missed out with this too (and Boards like Scandinavia having 3-6+ different languages - just an example, not sure how active that board is).

Campaign managers can shove users posts into grammarly too. Realistically, grammarly hates my grammar and I'm a native English speaker so I could imagine they'd have a hard time trying to do it and probably wouldn't get something very constructive/useful.

Also grammarly itself would probably charge for this unless there's an open source version.

A lot of stable companies have a debt to assets ratio of ~70% (or they have for a while, not sure about more recent times). It depends on the company how indebted they are, some banks have a 95%+ rate for example too.

I saw an article by the ft a few days ago that was doing a bit of a roundup on what had been going on in the cryptospace and it said a large number of companies were facing margin calls (this isn't to say they were over leveraged, just that they'd have to increase collateral or sell assets).

There's the chance in every industry a company gets liquidated by overleveraging and I do find it quite worrying some crypto companies have taken these steps already as it's a good way to desuade investors if they don't have good cash flow to quickly escape positions (crypto isn't an always strong market, the price is a lot stronger on rallies upwards than it is in bear winters - March 2020 was a good example of that).

Potentially.... But I can see a few things (on the 1h chart). One is the rise you're predicting, another would be a drop and retest of 0.054 - I'd take caution when trying to call these things in either direction if I were you. I think bitcoin has to do well price wise for alts to also do well so this is a speculation on a speculation.

LN wallets all have to be hot wallets or have hot wallet components imo. There's a security tradeoff with the person you're opening your channel with (and a potential it relies on trust).


I think it says this because they're an experienced and well known developer in the cryptospace and are offering the ln in all updated wallet software versions - it's been out a while but I'd like for anyone using the lightning network to try to understand it (and check you're happy and comfortable with its limitations).


It's disappointing it's not available in the appstore, I'd agree with that - especially if over half of the US still has iPhones (afaik in Europe it used to be 20% and is now likely even less that exclusively own an iPhone).

This is quite impressive to see you've managed to do it and incorporating it with financial education would be a good idea. I hope someone has access to the Internet in those rooms in case you get an interesting question and need to look more into it.

In this example, "we" probably meant the community (ie someone pointed this out to me and told me how to fix it).

There were likely always more contributors than the one person working on this but I don't think satoshi was a group but rather a figurehead type person (especially considering they corresponded quite a bit with individuals at the start).

There were definitely other groups and other developers working on the software and making forks by 2011 (eg electrum).

Is this something that's easy to mitigate though as it looks it? Like if you sent the funds on to yourself and then sent them to the other person afterwards then it'll be harder to detect (it'd cost a few cents more to do that but that's probably worth it).

It's probably more problematic that Coinbase doesn't have a great track record with keeping user data safe so there'll probably be more ways to bypass this too.

Did you mean to miss out electrum? Afaik they have a mobile version compatible with the lightning network (I've only used the ln on PC with electrum though - and used blw and eclair on mobile).

The rsi relies quite a bit on momentum too though, in the past when bitcoin has been oversold it's taken time and stagnation to bring it back to neutral (~50-60).

I've seen long times of flux between those levels too (particularly 2018) so it's possible we could see the start of that.

I think we're due some stagnation if we're in a bear market (and then for selling pressure to have an effect when buyers see nothing has happened for a while).

Can you list them here? It might be that some are tokens on other networks (like erc20 for ethereum).

What wasn't mentioned above was that if you do want to move your coins to an exchange from a wallet (particularly bitcoin) you might end up waiting an hour or two for the transaction to confirm - that might not be long but it might be worth remembering.

I'm assuming it'll come back within the 7 days or the server might know it's offline.

Realistically, since transactions were done over the blockchain the deposit address used should be enough to link the funds back to you and I seem to remember it being used in the past if people have lost their session tokens.

It depends on how much you have there, I'd recommend if the amount you're storing on the exchange exceeds 10x the price of a hardware wallet, you're probably better off getting one.

If you have a smaller amount of funds you can also make a wallet with electrum and store your funds there (electrum.org - their wallet also works quite well with ledger and trezor).


We can't know for sure but a lot of things can happen:
1. What if the exchange closes and you're out of the cryptospace for so long you lose your funds due to that.
2. The exchange could lose money due to a hack or poor financing.

There's always a risk with leaving funds on an exchange but there might also be a risk in entrusting yourself too.

I'd say ledger and trezor are the best warm wallets (cold wallets have no online interaction and require it to remain secure).

What do you mean by this?

Investing in crypto isn't a safe investment, I'd liken it to investing in a new innovative tech firm - it might do well but there's always a chance it might not.

Investing in communities normally starts as an investment in extracting something of value (commodities or services) which can then see more growth on top of that.

I saw the news about the ban on the ft before as well: https://www.ft.com/content/19c27ae1-ae72-4668-b3a9-162adc27dffc


I think that will be a case that goes on for a long time now too (perhaps more than a year this travel ban will be in place).

Where have you looked at already? A lot of sites don't like you using a vpn because they normally have odds that favour them for domestic bets (I just checked through a few site's terms - searching "proxy" and "vpn"). A lot of this might also depend on whether some sites ask for kyc before you deposit/withdraw.

The US seem far from a recession though, I don't think 18 cents/gallon (~4%) is actually going to be that noticeable. The UK government reduced taxes on petrol (gas) by 5% and have since started investigating whether forecourts (gas stations?) have actually been passing on the saving or not (I guess that's going to be hard to track though too).

If they're cutting the entire rate, I don't think it'll affect much on a federal level. But areas like california with their high fuel tax levies (if those are still in force) are probably going to notice this even less too.

The thread title and topic is a bit laughable... I don't think any traceable crime could really occur when doge was 15 sats .

But yes as things increase in popularity and price you can expect criminals to try to monopolise off that as well as people who don't understand why something's gone up not caring about where they put it (if they've not mentally realised the gain in actual numbers or don't need it).

I think China's equivelant to wall street is probably in Hong Kong but that was owned by the UK and still has a large amount of dual nationals (afaik).

The difference between these is that you can invest in stocks from a lot more countries than are able to invest in Chinese stocks (this is a thing that's changing as you can buy etfs for chinese companies but not individual stocks).

The similarities economically are the same across most regions at the moment though - China has a lot more economic issues due to covid still spreading a lot over there and being quite an isolated economy. Russia isn't a very functional economy either, there's a reason you don't hear much about it and I've seen estimates their current strategy of taking over old businesses that leave is going to cause a lot of supply chain problems and cash flow issues (at least to get it started).

Can you not just


If you're not used to doing things like this, it might be a reason not to and just run everything under admin until you actually need something more secure (eg have something people are likely to interact with).

Looks like a fun project but I'm not sure how practical it would be to use it for a crypto wallet. (it's a shame they didn't get an arm processor as most hardware wallet's code run off those).

If you're thinking of using the wifi or Bluetooth parts it might become as secure/insecure as a hot wallet as well (in a worst case scenario).

You'll probably be needing a keyboard as well (unless you plan on dumping runnable python code from a computer straight onto it and doing all your inputs to that via a camera or the keypad it comes with).

I assumed they meant a decentralised version of a site like opensea but for selling additional goods (such as physical items).

It's probably overinnovating for the time though as a lot of this would require escrow (for physical items and some digital ones that are hard to verify) or could just be easily done by using currently available options (making your own website and advertising it would be a lot easier (and arguably already as decentralised as it needs to be).
